“I really appreciate the mission of Focus and how it has helped so many families. However, in these tenuous times, this podcast barely scratches the surface of the overwhelming challenges we as Christian parents of teens face. I must admit that I roll my eyes quite a bit at many of the “problems “ that the hosts share about their own kids and how the approached them. If only my life were that easy! Despite raising my kids in a very loving, emotionally healthy 2 parent home with Christian values and practices at the center, I am dealing with serious adolescent problems. I feel so alone in my parenting journey as many Christian parents skip along through life and raise fairly obedient, emotionally healthy children. I have scoured Christianbook.com, gone to my church/pastor and found some other hurting Christian parents and quite a few solid books on parenting mentally ill and prodigal children. I would have thought Focus would be a good resource for this, but as it turns out- not much. They did have a short, excellent series on prodigal children with Bill and Jim Putnam. It was great-and I wish they would produce more content like this. To quote Focus, “eighty percent of all young people leave the church as young adults.” Isn’t this a crisis?!?!?Shouldn't this organization put more focus on this? I understand that this should apply to all stages of parenting, but entire segments on “whiny toddlers “ make me want the throw myself on the floor and laugh. Focus, please, please wake up to the serious challenges of raising teens. There are many of us hurting Christian parents who need support and encouragement.”Read full review »

“Love listening to your podcast especially on parenting. Wondering if you have any podcast from the life of missionary parenting kids and teens and how they adjust to the different cultures ? We have currently been on the field in Ghana for almost 3 years and gave some different situations and...”Read full review »
